SO 5 STARS, for the following reasons:
- Pure pleasure to slide and intoxicated by the inimitable style of Jane Austen, which always with elegance and great humor often described without complacency or sentimentality Victorian English society. For all those who do not know the time, this novel is a EXEMPLARY TESTIMONY of the division of that company that can break beings by preventing them from choosing their life, their professional destiny, their love, their marriage ....
- In all his novels Jane Austen has worked to defend the status of women and the little they possessed the right, we find HERE A DESCRIPTION of this Women around the fate of two sisters, Miss Dashwood and her younger sister Marianne mainly. But women are also present with their particularly through the unbearable Mrs John Daswood, where the mother of the two sisters Daswood completely "obsolete" after the death of her husband, I let you discover the completely eccentric exuberant character limit of Lady Middleton ... offering us by his frankness and sometimes without the gene exquisite pages of laughter ... a real game-maker!
- The novel begins on a point of this time English law: stipulating that girls could not inherit their father's legacy ... everything was up to the closest male descendant in the family genealogy. In this case Mr Dashwood father dies, or he had a son from a previous marriage: John Dashwood described as a weak
Extract: "... UNLESS Rather to be cold hearted and selfish Rather, is to be ill-disposed ...... He married, and de son verry bottom wife Mrs Dashwood Goal Was a strong caricature of himself - more narrow. - minded and selfish "
In short it couple "detestable", will apply to literally English law, despite the promise made to the deceased on his death bed and put the second wife and three daughters at the door of their homes overnight, without money .... they will be collected by the couple is inimitable Lady Middleton and her husband John in the cottage ....
Far from their region of origin, their relationships, their lifestyle .... direct consequence .... How can hope Dashwood widow-she married her two elder? no money, no relationship, so isolated?
And this is how Jane Austen brings on a host of finely described characters, scratched, often endearing ... VERY STILL ALIVE
- I will not reveal you the different sentimental attachments, more or less deep that some of the characters are related, despite the commitments required inner suffering, light or flippant attitudes of some and some .... It would destroy YOUR PLEASURE READER. ... AS A READER assiduous, I appreciate the comments in that one gives me information about the work or the author ... but mostly to be left to discover the path of the work by myself -even
- 5 stars: FOR ORIGINALITY in the Jane Austen novel ... IN THIS WORK, the author gives a greater share SUFFERING TO MEN, intimate suffering of broken destinies of this famous compartmentalization of society, the men forced renounce women they love because they do not have the necessary rank and expected by the parents of these men. These men love a woman can be disinherited, all those who do not choose their profession or their marriage .... THERE IS A ROMAN IN THIS extremely ATTACHING CHARACTER: Colonel Brandon ... A character reveals itself slowly through the pages ... Makes you wonder if this is not the ideal man?
To conclude this review, years Sense Sensibility is a novel that gives us a living picture, more complex, with a touch of romanticism through the character of Marianne (the second daughter Dashwood), which makes us travel in different geographical and social places . What distinguishes it from all other novels of Jane Austen. I, who have read and reread and re-reread 7 of the 8 novels of Jane Austen, I wonder if not by him that we should start exploring this INIMITABLE AUTHOR AND PRECIOUS BY ITS TALENT.
Excellent reading to you all
